Publication number: 20130209682Abstract: A coating composition for metal or refractories includes a polysilazane resin; and one or more additives that alter the thermal conductivity and/or the abrasion resistance of the cured polysilazane resin. The coating composition may be applied to a metal or refractory material substrate and heated to form a ceramic layer on the substrate. The ceramic layer exhibits lower thermal conductivity and increased abrasion resistance.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2011Publication date: August 15, 2013Applicant: TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITY SAN MARCOS, A COMPONENT OF THE TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEMInventors: John L. Massingill, JR., Clois E. Powell, Robert B. Habingreither, Ray G. Cook

Publication number: 20130184374Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel heat moldable gel and foam composition and the process for making the gel and foam composition. The gel and foam composition comprises gel infused into cells of a foam. The gel is a blend of gelling agents, such as thermoplastic polymers, resiliency components, such as styrene-butadiene or styrene-isoprene copolymer and softening agents, such as oils. The foam preferably has a hardness less than or equal to a hardness of the gel.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2012Publication date: July 18, 2013Inventor: Jeffrey S. RICH

Publication number: 20130178557Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a rubber composition capable of achieving both good rolling resistance properties and good wear resistance in a compatible manner when the rubber composition is applied to a component member, e.g. tread, of a tire. Specifically, the present invention provides a rubber composition comprising a rubber composition and hydrated silica, wherein “CTAB” (m2/g) as specific surface area by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide adsorption and “IB” as ink bottle-shaped micropore index, of the hydrated silica, satisfy a specific relationship and “weight loss on ignition” (mass %) as weight loss when the hydrate silicate is heated at 750 ° C. for 3 hours and “weight loss on heating” (mass %) as weight loss when the hydrate silicate is heated at 105 ° C. for 2 hours satisfy a specific relationship.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2011Publication date: July 11, 2013Applicant: BRIDGESTONE CORPORATIONInventor: Masaki Yanagioka
